Interview
I applied online and got an phone call to arrange an interview. The interview was casual and easy. The interviewer asked me some questions and gave me an overview about J. Crew, including job descriptions, employees' benefits, weekly competitions etc. And I got the job offer on the spot. And when I informed the interviewer about the EAD card, he knew exactly what I was talking about and the conversation was pleasant.

I applied in-person. I interviewed at J. Crew (Grand Prairie, TX)
Interview
Lovely interview with the then assistant manager. Just connect showing your bubbly personality and talk maturely about your former job experience.
It ran for about 30-35 mins yet felt as if time flew by due to great conversation.
Great retail job. Requires alot of connecting with customers, even styling them in the fit rooms. But also remember EVERYONES EXPERIENCE is different
Easy, Basic Questions with the store manager. Just ask about previous experience and your availability. Why you want to work there. Met with the store manager and asked questions outside of the store.
the interview was entirely behavioral and very casual/conversational. mostly just how you would handle customer interactions and selling the credit card. i would highly recommend working there and interviewing. very similar to other retail interviews.
